What are some of the reasons you chose technical writing as a career?

"I have always been interested in technology. I got my first computer when I was just six years old and taught myself keyboarding and writing. I spent a great deal of time exploring technical topics on the internet. When I was just 12, I created a blog about my favorite technologies for my classmates. One of my teachers became interested in this and worked with me to improve my writing skills. I fell in love with writing and decided to pursue a career in literature. However, it became apparent that I could make money as a technical writer, which would combine my passion for writing with my interest in technology. I fell in love with this career in my first job and have never looked back."
